Computerbase.de is reporting that the new 40GB PlayStation 3 features the new 65nm Cell processors, as opposed to the 90nm chips powering the previous models.

As a result, power utilization has dropped from 200 watts to 135 watts, and the consoles will be cooler and quieter than the previously available 20GB and 60GB models - although heat or noise were never major issues with the PlayStation 3 in the first place.
